Chapter 552 - The Fifth Gate

”People know that there are a total of four entrances to Furious Billows Castle, located in the east, south, west and north respectively. What no one knows is that there is actually a fifth entrance to Furious Billows Castle.”

Tang Huan said while beaming.

Everyone knew that out of the four entrances to the Furious Billows Castle, the southern and western entrances, the three armies that were besieging the Furious Billows Castle were mostly deployed in these two directions.

The entrances to the north and east were all near the sea. Due to the limitations of the terrain, the number of people that could be deployed to those two entrances were extremely small, and they were often ambushed from the sea by Demon Clan’s troops. Furthermore, the troops of the Demon Clan’s army also obtained supplies from the sea from those two entrances.

”What?”

Feng Ming was shocked, she looked at Tang Huan in disbelief: ”The fifth entrance?”

She had been in the Demon Clan for many years, but she had never heard of this news. If the Demon Clan was like this, then the entire Human Clan was the same. Otherwise, the three allied armies would have attacked the Furious Billows Castle long ago.

”How do you know?” Immediately after, Feng Ming who had recovered from his shock and asked subconsciously.

”I originally didn’t know either, but since Senior Cang Mo and the others knew about it, I also knew about it.” Tang Huan said with a smile.

”Cang Mo...”

Feng Ming was startled for a moment, then understood, the fifth entrance, was something that Cang Mo had told him. Cang Mo and the others were originally generals under Feng Wu Ye’s command, and Feng Wu Ye had once guarded this Furious Billows Castle for many years.

From the looks of it, the fifth entrance was really there.

Tang Huan smiled slightly and said: ”When General Feng Wuye oversaw this Furious Billows Castle all those years ago, he had thought that if there were only four entrances, it would be almost impossible to snatch them back once this Furious Billows Castle was occupied. To be safe, he sent his trusted aides to build a fifth entrance. However, the existence of that entrance has always been a secret in the Human Clan. Other than the person who was ordered to stay silent, in the entire Human Clan, only the Honorable Sacred Emperor and General Feng Wuye know of that fifth entrance. ”

Tang Huan paused for a moment before continuing, ”Before General Feng Wu Ye’s death, he told Cang Mo where the fifth entrance was. In these past few decades, even though Cang Mo has never left the ’Demon Region Desert’, he knows that the Demon Clan must have taken control of the Furious Billows Castle. However, he hates the actions of the three nations so he never planned to leak this information out, only until I left the Star Stone Continent did he change his mind. ”

Saying this, Tang Huan could not help but sigh.

If not for the fact that he coincidentally entered the Star Stone Continent and helped Cang Mo and the others drive away the Jiu Mo Sha, who was trying to take the [Divine Weapon Catalogue] ’s remnant scroll and gem, no one would ever know about the existence of the fifth entrance of the Furious Billows Castle once Cang Mo died. It was also possible that this castle would continue to be occupied by the Demon Clan for another ten years, or even decades, or even hundreds of years.

After all, the Tang Dynasty, Mo Yun, and Sha Long could not always garrison their troops in Two Realms Plain. If any friction or unforeseen event were to occur between the three nations, it could possibly affect the situation in the Two Realms Plain. Once the Demon Clan recovered from his defeat, the effects would be even more severe.

”In that case, what are we waiting for?” Hearing Tang Huan’s words, Feng Ming’s eyes lit up, and was eager to give it a try.

”Let’s go!”

Tang Huan collected his emotions, laughed, and followed the mountain to the north. Very quickly, the vast ocean entered Tang Huan’s and Feng Ming’s line of sight.

The two of them had already reached the northwest of Furious Billows Castle. After exchanging glances, the two of them dove down and floated down to the shore.

The foot of the mountain was only about ten meters away from the sea. After a single wave, it would be able to strike against the mountain. Although Tang Huan had never been to Furious Billows Castle before, from what he had heard from Cang Mo, the shore was always this narrow.

In this kind of region, the army could not be spread out. This was also the reason why the Human Allied Forces was mainly guarding the west and south sides of the castle.

”Whoosh!” ”Whiz!”

With Tang Huan at the front and Feng Ming at the back, the two figures sped across the ocean that was splattered with splashes.

After a short few thousand meters, Tang Huan suddenly stopped, and after looking around for a moment, he began to size up everything. At this moment, what appeared in front of Tang Huan was a slightly caved in stone wall, the surface of the wall was as smooth as a mirror, and there were no traces of excavation.

”Right here?” Feng Ming could not help but ask.

”This should be the place.”

While talking, Tang Huan had already taken a few steps forward. He slightly raised his right arm, and slowly stroked his palm on the stone wall. Time trickled by, after a long while, Tang Huan finally revealed a smile on his face, the arrangement of the stone wall was similar to the Forging God Cave’s Nine Barriers in different ways.

On the wall, there were nine bumps the size of a baby’s fist.

Due to the color of the stone wall, it was difficult to detect the nine protrusions with the naked eye. Even if someone were to pass by and stand in front of the stone wall, it would be very difficult to discover them. Even if they did, no one would care. Who would have thought that there would be a fifth entrance to the Furious Billows Castle? Furthermore, even if one guessed that there was another universe behind the stone wall, they would still not be able to enter without knowing the method.

Just like the Sword Crafting Valley, the nine convex spots required a large amount of Genuine Qi s to be entered in a specific order before the channel could be opened.

According to what Cang Mo had revealed, it required a Peak Stage Nine Martial Saint to be able to do.

Ordinary Stage Nine Martial Saint simply did not have that many Genuine Qi s, and if they could not absorb enough Genuine Qi from the nine convex points in one go, they would still fail.

”Feng Ming, watch out for me. If any Demon Clansmen comes close, kill them immediately.”

After warning Feng Ming, Tang Huan immediately took action. His right palm pressed down on a raised point and in between his mind instructs (in a second), the majestic Genuine Qi crazily roared out from his palm like a violent storm, continuously penetrating the protruding point.

After a long while, Tang Huan finally raised his palm, moved it to the second protruding point, and the vigorous Genuine Qi once again surged out like a tide.

And then a third, a fourth …

”Buzz!”

After around a quarter of an hour, when Tang Huan raised his hand from the ninth protrusion, a low and deep piercing sound came out from the stone wall, and from the point of view, it exploded forth with a dazzling white luster.

In the next moment, those nine balls of white light slowly spread out, crisscrossing the stone walls, quickly spreading out. In the blink of an eye, those nine balls of white light had already become three meters tall and two meters wide, dazzling everyone.
